Hi,

I’m trying to check if an ACF Field from the Option page is true in functions.php, but I can’t get it to work. Below is my code from functions.php. Any ideas?

	function my_acf_save_post($post_id){
			
		$var = get_field('test_switch', 'option' );
			
		if($var == 'true' ) {
			
			function codex_custom_init() {
	
				register_post_type(
					'evenementen', array(
					    'labels' => array('name' => __( 'Feesten en evenementen' ),
										'singular_name' => __( 'Feest of evenement' ),
										'add_new' => __( 'Feest of evenement toevoegen' ),
										'add_new_item' => __( 'Feest of evenement toevoegen' ),
										'edit_item' => __( 'Feest of evenement bewerken' ),
										'new_item' => __( 'Feest of evenement toevoegen' ),
										),
					    'public' => true,
					    'has_archive' => true,
					    'supports' => array('title', 'editor', 'thumbnail')
					 )
				);
				add_action( 'init', 'codex_custom_init' );
			};
		}
	};
	
	add_action('acf/save_post', 'my_acf_save_post', 'option');

This function is only running during acf/save_post, so you’re init action will never be added unless a post is being saved.

<?php 
    
  function codex_custom_init() {
    $var = get_field('test_switch', 'option' );
    if($var == 'true' ) {
  
    register_post_type(
      'evenementen', array(
          'labels' => array('name' => __( 'Feesten en evenementen' ),
          'singular_name' => __( 'Feest of evenement' ),
          'add_new' => __( 'Feest of evenement toevoegen' ),
          'add_new_item' => __( 'Feest of evenement toevoegen' ),
          'edit_item' => __( 'Feest of evenement bewerken' ),
          'new_item' => __( 'Feest of evenement toevoegen' ),
        ),
        'public' => true,
        'has_archive' => true,
        'supports' => array('title', 'editor', 'thumbnail')
       )
      );
    }
  }
  add_action( 'init', 'codex_custom_init' );
?>
